Ecology

The course provides a comprehensive introduction to ecology and covers the main concepts and basics of the field, with a special emphasis on Iceland's nature.

The history of ecology, the structure of ecosystems, energy flow and the cycle of materials, biodiversity and how species form communities in different ecosystems will be covered. Population ecology, sustainable use of natural resources and the importance of nature conservation will also be discussed.

The goal is for participants to understand why the diversity of ecosystems is important and to know the uniqueness of Icelandic nature. It will also be shown how ecology is connected to daily life, community development and future possibilities.

The course is suitable for anyone who wants to build a solid foundation in ecology – whether it is out of interest, for further studies or in connection with future work.
